I read Stephen King books while at a haunted hotel!!

And now I have read Misery, Pet Sematary, 11/22/63 and this is my fourth Stephen King book. 11/22/63 first and then I would put this book at second.

The only reason I wouldn't say higher is I do think that the plot and the horror mechanics were pretty simple. And I don't know plot-wise if anything at any point super surprised me. But, like I was talking about before, I love the themes in this book.

Third being Pet Sematary and fourth being Misery.

Like Pet Sematary, at its core, it's a book about grief.

Where we're at in the book right now, the way he writes the characters and how their mental states just slowly deteriorate is really, really cool. I feel like the thing that gets me in like horror movies is more so jump scares, but what's cool in Stephen King's writing is the scariest part is literally the opposite of a jump scare.
